Please comment at Kelvin Tan's ongoing peer review!

You have listed yourself as a peer review volunteer interested in general copyediting. Would you like to support the quest to counter systemic bias on Wikipedia? Would you like to read an interesting article about something different? If so, you are invited to give a thorough review of the article Kelvin Tan, which is about a blind Singaporean Mandopop singer. The article is very short and should not take long to review. Hope you enjoy reviewing it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Thanks! 谢谢！Terima kasih! நன்றி! --J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 12:34, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

Help with uploading a logo

Hello.

You helped me fix the logo for the 2014 European Allround Speed Skating Championships two weeks ago.

Would you be kind enough to help me with the logo for the 2014 World Sprint Speed Skating Championships too? I will only make a mess of it.

You can find the logo here (top center).

Thanks in advance.

Would be glad to help. Give me a few days though, I have just got back from an overseas trip.--ukexpat (talk) 21:16, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

No problem. I have downloaded a couple of variants, in case they are removed from the websites, now that the competion's over. I could mail them to you, I suppose (if you agree), but I haven't mailed via wikipedia before, so I'm not sure how to go about it.

Komla Dumor Cats.

Hi,

Thanks for passing by Komla Dumor, per your edits here you want sources. Ok, I will not change anything to prevent edit wars, Komla's grandfather Philip Gbeho is from the Volta Region that should validate the category relating to this. Also his hometown Aflao^[1] is in the Volta Region hence an Ewe. So you can rectify your changes to suit this, if I've convinced you enough. Thanks. →Enock4seth ^(talk) 06:58, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Jack Parsons

Dear UKexpat, I must apologise but I reverted your recent renaming of the Jack Parsons (rocket propulsion engineer) page. I can certainly understand and appreciate your reasoning behind the move but "Jack Parsons (engineer)" really doesn't reflect why Parsons was notable; he just wasn't an engineer in the conventional sense of the term. Furthermore, there has already been much discussion regarding the naming of the page over at the talk page over the past few years, and there has been a consensus toward the current wording. However, I'm happy to discuss this further on the talk page if you like. No hard feelings (I hope) ! Kind regards, Midnightblueowl (talk) 20:49, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

Please see: Wikipedia:NCPDAB. Disambiguating titles are not supposed to be exact and detailed, they should be as general as possible. They can be more detailed if circumstances require: if for example in this case there were two engineers called Jack Parsons, it would be OK to disambiguate in more detail by type of engineer. That doesn't apply in this case. If you're not convinced I will open a move discussion on the talk page as the discussions there have not dealt with the issue of a more general disam title. Also note that the field of engineering for which he is notable is a matter for the article to deal with (as it does) not the title of the article.--ukexpat (talk) 21:00, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
